Come and learn step by step approaches to oil painting. On this ten week course we will cover materials and methods of oil painting such as supports and surfaces, brushes and paint mediums. We will work on colour mixing and ways of constructing images through contrasting tonal values, blocks of colour, line and texture. Much emphasis will be placed on the tactile handling of the paint. We will start by painting simple still life set ups. With a maximum of twelve students, this course will ensure you receive all the guidance you need to set yourself on the path to successful  oil painting.
